Advantages of femtosecond laser surgery in Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital
With the continuous progress of science and technology, femtosecond laser surgery, as a revolutionary ophthalmic surgery technology, has been widely used in Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital. This surgical technique has unique advantages, which can effectively treat the refractive error of the eye and help patients restore bright vision. The advantages of femtosecond laser surgery in Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital will be described in detail in the following four aspects: corneal ablation accuracy, surgical recovery time, surgical safety, and surgical indications.
Corneal cutting accuracy
Femtosecond laser surgery is a technology that uses laser beam to cut cornea. Compared with traditional surgical methods, its cutting accuracy is higher and more accurate. The femtosecond laser can precisely cut the corneal tissue within the femtosecond level (1 femtosecond is equal to 1 millionth of a second), and the operation process is very safe. In addition, femtosecond laser surgery can also be customized according to the specific conditions of the patient's eyes to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of surgery.
In addition, femtosecond laser surgery can also achieve smaller cutting depth and smoother corneal incision, reducing patients' pain and the possibility of complications after surgery. This high cutting accuracy makes femtosecond laser surgery the preferred technology for myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other problems.
Operation recovery time
Compared with traditional surgical techniques, femtosecond laser surgery has a faster recovery time. Because the cutting method is very accurate, the recovery time of patients after surgery is greatly shortened. Patients can usually recover their normal vision within a few days after surgery, and do not need to wear eye masks or special care.
In addition, because the femtosecond laser surgery has very little impact on the corneal tissue, the patient can quickly return to the normal state before surgery, and avoid the corneal scar problem that may occur in traditional surgery. This fast recovery time not only facilitates the daily life of patients, but also improves the satisfaction of surgery.
Operation safety
Femtosecond laser surgery technology is widely used in Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital, not only because of its high cutting accuracy, but also because of its excellent surgical safety. Femtosecond laser surgery does not require a scalpel, but relies entirely on laser beam for operation, reducing the risk of infection and bleeding that may occur during the operation.
In addition, femtosecond laser surgery can also track the eye movements of patients in real time to ensure the accuracy and safety of surgery. The patient does not need to worry about the pain or discomfort during the operation. The whole operation process is very safe and effectively protects the patient's eye health.
Surgical indications
The femtosecond laser surgery in Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital is applicable to a variety of refractive errors, including myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, etc. The patient will receive a detailed eye examination and evaluation before surgery, and the doctor will decide whether it is suitable for femtosecond laser surgery according to the specific situation of the patient.
Generally speaking, adult patients with myopia within - 9.00D, hyperopia within+4.00D and astigmatism within - 3.00D can consider femtosecond laser surgery. However, patients with corneal diseases, glaucoma, cataract and other eye diseases may not be suitable for this operation.
summary
Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital uses femtosecond laser technology for ophthalmic surgery, which has obvious advantages in corneal ablation accuracy, surgical recovery time, surgical safety, and surgical indications. This innovative surgical technique provides patients with a very safe, fast and effective method for the treatment of refractive errors. Patients should consult professional doctors when choosing surgery, and make wise decisions according to their own conditions.
